I propose that
Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives be merged into
Sega 3D Classics Collection. Recently, a third JP retail collection was announced and instead of spliting the articles by region I think it would be much better to have a single comprehensive article that lists all the releases so far: Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives (1, 2 / 3D Collection, and 3), their development (the Sega Blog Interviews is a great resource for this), etc. We even have an
existing list on the wiki that could be used to aid us in this task. Thoughts?

Personally, I'm in favour of them all being in a singular article. By doing this, it provides more content on the singular article of the Classics Collection.

I'm also in favour of the merge, so it'll be like it used to be on one article. It would be more organised and cleaner when merged together. Both articles being full of identical copy-pasted sentences doesn't exactly help either. It's a range of collected video games with multiple volumes, after all, which in this case doesn't really warant the need for multiple articles.

Page structure and title
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Sega 3D Classics Collection → Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives – This page is currently structured as a page for the game "Sega 3D Classics Collection", that happens to also cover "Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives" and "Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives 3: Final Stage". I think it would be better structured as a page about the video game series "Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives" that covers all three equally, rather than emphasizing the only game with an English release so strongly. In that case, the title "Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives" would also be more appropriate, as this is common to the titles of all three games in the series.

The series as a whole lacks any English name, so there is no English name to prefer. The current page title is the title of a single game in the series, which I don't think it makes sense to use unless we give each of the games their own separate page (which I would prefer not to do). --

I am somewhat sympathetic to the idea that the Japanese word shouldn't be added back into the title. It just means "reprint" or "release", and there are at least some non-Japanese sources that call the series
Sega 3D Reprint Archives, e.g.
this and
this. I would suggest using that as a compromise that doesn't require too much extra work here.

Thanks for finding a suitable translation for Fukkoku. I don't mind translating the word as "Reprint" if it has decent use in English-language sources. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (

I fully support the title of "Sega 3D Reprint Archives". I have no issue with using a translated title over a transliterated one. I think secondary sources tend to lean towards "Fukkoku" slightly more often, but it wouldn't surprise me if that's largely due to that being the name Wikipedia was using at the time. --
